Subject: [KYJacksonPurchase-L] Graves County Special Post - Early 20th Century Marriages
Date: Wed, 03 Mar 1999 18:39:47 -0600


My friends -

Tonight, I am going to bring a slightly different type of posting to you,
concerning Graves County. Our good friend, Beth Devine(who has provided Graves
County cemetery records for us in the past)has provided some information
for us
on Graves County marriages in the early part of this century. With her
permission, I am  posting that information here.

The information that you will see below is the complete record - neither she
nor I have any information beyond what is shown here. Hopefully, it will be of
value to those of you whose family names appear in the material.

Tomorrow, we will return to early Calloway County marriage records.
